Time to take that Big Fish sign down, Heather! Miss Mills invites film crew to view her new vegan restaurant

It seems vegan Heather Mills could do with getting a move on in renovating her newly bought restaurant.

The 41-year-old has been spotted showing a film crew around the popular fish cafe in East Sussex which she plans to turn into a vegan eaterie.

But having bought the restaurant nearly two weeks ago, Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife seems to be in no hurry to remove the Big Fish sign emblazoned across the building.

Despite being a vegan - someone who's strictly against eating any animal or dairy products - it may be seen as somewhat ironic by some that she has chosen to buy up a fish restaurant for her latest business venture.

What's perhaps even more interesting, however, is that in her seemingly contradictory world, Mills has reportedly signed a £3million contract with Burger King.

The mother-of-one will allegedly promote vegetarian food for the meat-selling, fastfood outlet.

She will apparently be backing the launch of a new meat-free burger at the chain's 11,350 outlets worldwide.

A source told The People: 'Heather is ecstatic. She believes she can change the eating habits of millions. She's also being paid a lot of money and the deal will help boost her standing.'

Mills was seen holding court with a film crew outside the Big Fish Cafe near her home in Hove on Saturday wearing a three-quarter-length green cardigan and a vegan T-shirt.

Earlier she was spotted with her new boyfriend Jamie Walker, a former Tenerife holiday rep.

After initially agreeing to part with £255,000 for the restaurant she forced the price down to £140,000.

Former owner Nick Short said the ex-glamour model, who clinched a £24million settlement in her divorce from Sir Paul, had eaten there 'about 20 times' with Bea, her five-year-old daughter by the musician.

'I sold traditional fry-ups but veggie food was on the menu, too. They'd have veggie breakfasts and soya milk tea,' said Mr Short.
